The cast polymers market is projected to grow from USD 9.08 Billion in 2017 to USD 11.97 Billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 5.7% from 2017 to 2022. The growth of the construction & remodeling industry across the globe, along with increased demand for high-quality cast polymers products is expected to fuel the growth of the cast polymers market during the forecast period.

Based on type, the cast polymers market has been segmented into solid surface, engineered stone, and cultured marble. Solid surface is a man-made product, which is usually composed of marble dust, acrylic, or polyester resins and pigments. It is primarily used for seamless countertop installations. In terms of value, the solid surface segment is projected to lead the cast polymers market during the forecast period, owing to the wide use of solid surface products in kitchen and bathroom applications. The engineered stone segment of the market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR between 2017 and 2022, in terms of value due to increased demand for engineered stones from the residential and non-residential sectors. The increased demand for these stones from the residential and non-residential sectors can be attributed to the high performance offered by engineered stones in comparison to other materials.

Based on end user, the cast polymers market has been classified into non-residential and residential segments. The non-residential segment of the market is projected to grow at a higher CAGR than the residential segment during the forecast period, in terms of value. The growth of the non-residential segment of the cast polymers market can be attributed to the increased demand for these materials from non-residential constructions such as hospitals, and schools, among others.

Based on material, the cast polymers market has been classified into alumina trihydrate, calcium carbonate, resins, natural stone/quartz, and others. Alumina trihydrate, calcium carbonate, and resins are the major raw materials used for manufacturing cast polymers. The alumina trihydrate segment is estimated to lead the cast polymers market in 2017, in terms of value. The growth of this segment of the market can be attributed to the versatile properties such as high durability and scratch resistance offered by alumina trihydrate. Moreover, it is cost-effective. In terms of value, the natural stone/quart segment of the cast polymers market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
